Product breakdown:
From initial sampling to developing a viable supply chain, Piñatex® is inspired by the principles of a Circular Economy and Cradle to Cradle values. The use of pineapple leaf fibre, an agricultural waste product, provides the opportunity to build a scalable commercial industry for developing farming communities, with minimal environmental impact. Designed by studio Ananas Asam, this product uses a byproduct of pineapple agriculture to create a product that is low in waste, with the bonus of creating an additional income stream for pineapple farmers in The Philippines. The product is available in a wide variety of colours, and has a multitude of potential applications from clothing to furniture.
